It is generally a good idea to gain an understanding of the "size" of units. Consider the following objects and calculate their kinetic energy.

A ladybug weighing 28.5 milligrams flies by your head at 3.65 km/h.

A 6.95-kg bowling ball slides (not rolls) down an alley at 23.7 km/h.

A car weighing 1020-kg is moving at a speed of 45.5 km/h.

Based on your results above, which of the following scenarios below likely describe an object possessing one joule of kinetic energy?

1. A mosquito flying through a swamp

2. An elephant running across a field

3. A beetle walking across a jungle floor

4. A tiger running after prey

5. A cat walking down a sidewalk

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length (in m) of a column of water 1.45 km high for a temperature increase of 1.12°c. assume the column is not free to expand sideways. as a model of the ocean, that is a reasonable approximation, as only parts of the ocean very close to
